Colts sign Ryan Grant: 5 things to know

The Indianapolis Colts announced the signing of free agent Ryan Grant on Tuesday, adding depth at wide receiver.

The Colts have begun to pick up the pace in terms of activity during the second wave of free agency; Grant represents the second signing in as many days this week, with the other being tight end Eric Ebron.

Much-needed depth at wide receiver

Behind T.Y. Hilton and Chester Rogers, the Colts didn’t have much in terms of experience at wide receiver. Adding a body or two to the room is a necessity entering the draft, especially with quarterback Andrew Luck expected to return after sitting out the entire 2017 season.

Even with Grant, the wide receiver room could use some more experience but he does provide some much-needed depth behind Hilton and will likely be able to compete for a starting spot depending on how the rest of the offseason goes.
